i dont want this to be taken the wrong way, and i have no right to judge since i'm so green to climbing, but,
what's so wrong with doing it 'by the book'?
i'm all for innovation, when it is innovation, but if im honest friend, I think you've got a solution there and you're looking for a problem.
personally, I climb DRT with a split tail and blakes. Ive just been trying out different friction hitches. I quite like the distel but im unsure if it suits me any better than the blakes. My only modification to the way I climb is to emply Eric (EKKA)'s suggestion of an automatic knot advancing micropulley on a prussik cord of its own (the method in the tree climbers companion I find inefficient as the pulley always begins a distance away from the knot)
Now ive finally bought a cambium saver, I do not find bodythrusting difficult at all. Ive got it to the point now where I can concentrate more on my learning positioning within the canopy. Ive just learnt to footlock as well, another energy saving exercise when done properly.
It's clear to me that youve done your share of tree work with whatever amount of success (obviously im not aware of your background).
What I've recently been doing is swapping out my sport climbing stuff for tree specific gear. just bought a Kolibri harness, triple lock biners, new split tails, two fliplines, one wirecore, one not. I could climb happily on my sport harness, and screwgates, but theyre NOT designed for tree work.
What I'm getting at is MY PERSONAL OPINION is that you would be making life a lot easier, and more importantly SAFER, by using tried and tested, and approved, methods. I just cant stop myself from saying that I can personally see you having a nasty accident with those axes in a WHEN scenario, not an IF one.
sorry if that came across in a way I didnt mean it, but as a newbie, it's my perogative to be a safety freak. Limb walking still SCARES me, but not half as much as those axes
Stay safe!
